Description
本発明は、ダイオード、トランジスタ等の電子デバイスにおける電極の形成に関し、より詳細には、塗布法により形成される電極パターンを備えた電子デバイスの製造方法に関する。
The present invention relates to the formation of electrodes in electronic devices such as diodes and transistors, and more particularly to a method for manufacturing an electronic device having an electrode pattern formed by a coating method.
電子回路は、年々小型化が進み、それに伴って電極も微細配線化が進んでいる。このように微細配線化された電極の作製には、通常、フォトリソグラフィが用いられている。
しかしながら、フォトリソグラフィプロセスを用いたリフトオフやウエットエッチングでは、レジスト塗布、乾燥、露光、現像及び膜のエッチング等において、大量の溶剤や化学薬品、電力が使用されるため、地球環境への負荷が大きい。 Electronic circuits have been miniaturized year by year, and along with this, electrodes have been made finer. Photolithography is usually used for producing such finely wired electrodes.
However, in lift-off and wet etching using a photolithographic process, a large amount of solvent, chemicals, and electric power are used in resist coating, drying, exposure, development, film etching, and the like, so the load on the global environment is large. .

However, in lift-off and wet etching using a photolithographic process, a large amount of solvent, chemicals, and electric power are used in resist coating, drying, exposure, development, film etching, and the like, so the load on the global environment is large. .
これに対しては、近年、設備投資の負担が軽く、大量生産が可能であり、低コストメリットを望める方法として、印刷を用いた電極形成が行われるようになってきた。印刷法は、フォトリソグラフィに比べて使用原材料や化学薬品が少量で済むため、地球環境に優しいグリーンイノベーション分野の技術として期待されている。印刷法においては、さらに、少量多品種に対応できる印刷技術が望まれている。
In response to this, in recent years, electrode formation using printing has been performed as a method for reducing the cost of capital investment, enabling mass production, and offering low cost merit. The printing method is expected as a technology in the green innovation field that is friendly to the global environment because it requires less raw materials and chemicals than photolithography. In the printing method, further, a printing technique capable of dealing with a small variety of products is desired.
印刷法により電極パターンを形成する具体的な方法としては、インクジェット方式、凸版印刷、グラビア印刷、スプレー印刷、スリットコート法、スクリーン印刷等、様々な方法がある。この中でも、微細配線に効果的な印刷方法は、インクジェット方式、凸版印刷及びグラビア印刷である。
しかしながら、凸版印刷及びグラビア印刷は、版を用いる点でオンデマンド性に劣る。これに対して、版を必要としないインクジェット方式は、オンデマンド性に優れていると言える。 As a specific method for forming an electrode pattern by a printing method, there are various methods such as an ink jet method, letterpress printing, gravure printing, spray printing, slit coating method, and screen printing. Among these, an effective printing method for fine wiring is an ink jet method, relief printing, and gravure printing.
However, letterpress printing and gravure printing are inferior in on-demand properties in that a plate is used. On the other hand, it can be said that the ink jet system which does not require a plate is excellent in on-demand characteristics.

ただし、インクジェット方式で微細配線を行う場合、基板に着弾したインクが如何に広がらずに指定位置に確実に形成することができるかが重要なポイントとなる。

図4においては、基板11のインク15に対する濡れ性が高いため、設定幅d以上に線幅が広がっている。一方、図5においては、基板21のインク25に対する撥液性が高いため、インク25が定着せずに基板の端に移動し、線幅も狭くなっている。
このように、インクジェット方式では、基板の濡れ性によりインクの線幅が変化するという現象が生じる。 However, when fine wiring is performed by an ink jet method, an important point is how the ink that has landed on the substrate can be reliably formed at a specified position without spreading.
4 and 5 show conceptual diagrams when fine wiring is performed on a substrate by an ink jet method. (A) shows the state of the ink immediately after the ink is dropped, (b) shows the state of the ink after evaporation, and (c) shows the state of the ink after drying.
In FIG. 4, since the wettability of thesubstrate 11 to the ink 15 is high, the line width is wider than the set width d. On the other hand, in FIG. 5, since the liquid repellency of the substrate 21 to the ink 25 is high, the ink 25 moves to the end of the substrate without being fixed, and the line width is also narrowed.
Thus, in the ink jet system, a phenomenon occurs in which the line width of the ink changes due to the wettability of the substrate.

この対策として、例えば、特許文献1に、濡れ性制御層に紫外線を照射することにより表面エネルギーを変化させて、インクが広がる範囲を制御することが記載されている。
また、特許文献2には、インクが広がる範囲の制御のために、凸領域にインクを滴下することで平滑面より撥水的な挙動が起こる現象を利用することが記載されている。 As a countermeasure against this, for example,Patent Document 1 describes that the surface energy is changed by irradiating the wettability control layer with ultraviolet rays to control the range in which the ink spreads.
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. H10-228561 describes using a phenomenon in which water repellent behavior occurs from a smooth surface by dropping ink onto a convex region in order to control the range in which the ink spreads.

以下、本発明について図面を参照して詳細に説明する。
本発明に係る電子デバイスの製造方法は、基板上に、前記基板とは異なる材質からなり、前記基板よりも高い表面エネルギーを持つ、電極パターン形状の第一層と、前記第一層の上面に、導電性ナノインクにより形成された第二層とを備えた電子デバイスを製造する方法である。そして、前記第一層をガスカーテン方式レーザCVD法により形成することを特徴としている。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

An electronic device manufacturing method according to the present invention includes a first layer having an electrode pattern shape on a substrate, made of a material different from the substrate and having a higher surface energy than the substrate, and an upper surface of the first layer. And a method of manufacturing an electronic device including a second layer formed of conductive nano ink. The first layer is formed by a gas curtain laser CVD method.
図1に、本発明に係る電子デバイスの上記の態様の電極パターン構造の概念図を示す。図1に示したように、本発明に係る電子デバイスは、基板1上に、第一層2及び第二層3が形成されている。第一層2は、基板1とは異なる材質で、基板1よりも高い表面エネルギーを持ち、電極パターン形状に形成される。そして、第二層3は、導電性ナノインクにより形成される。
FIG. 1 shows a conceptual diagram of an electrode pattern structure of the above-described aspect of an electronic device according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, in the electronic device according to the present invention, a first layer 2 and a second layer 3 are formed on a substrate 1. The first layer 2 is made of a material different from that of the substrate 1, has a surface energy higher than that of the substrate 1, and is formed in an electrode pattern shape. The second layer 3 is formed of a conductive nano ink.
図3に、図1に示す電極パターンが形成される過程を説明するための概念図を示す。まず、基板1上に、基板1よりも高い表面エネルギーを持つ第一層2を電極パターン形状に形成しておく。これにより、基板1と第一層2との間に表面エネルギーが異なる境界面が形成される。そして、第一層2の上に、導電性ナノインク5を滴下すると、その直後は、第一層2の幅からはみ出して、基板1表面にも一部接触するようにインクが広がる(図3(a)参照)。その後、インクの溶媒が蒸発していくと、導電性ナノインク5は自己組織的に、表面エネルギーが高い第一層2の上面のみに集まって留まり、それ以上広がることが抑制される(図3(b)参照)。この状態で乾燥させると、第一層2の上面のみに導電性ナノインク5が乾燥して生成した第二層3が形成され、第一層2とほぼ同等の幅で微細な電極パターンを形成することができる。
FIG. 3 is a conceptual diagram for explaining the process of forming the electrode pattern shown in FIG. First, a first layer 2 having a surface energy higher than that of the substrate 1 is formed in an electrode pattern shape on the substrate 1. As a result, a boundary surface having different surface energy is formed between the substrate 1 and the first layer 2. Then, when the conductive nano ink 5 is dropped on the first layer 2, immediately after that, the ink spreads out from the width of the first layer 2 so as to partially contact the surface of the substrate 1 (FIG. 3 ( a)). Thereafter, when the solvent of the ink is evaporated, the conductive nano ink 5 is self-organized and stays gathered only on the upper surface of the first layer 2 having a high surface energy, and is prevented from spreading further (FIG. 3 ( b)). When dried in this state, the second layer 3 formed by drying the conductive nano ink 5 is formed only on the upper surface of the first layer 2, and a fine electrode pattern is formed with a width substantially equal to that of the first layer 2. be able to.
また、本発明に係る他の態様の電子デバイスの製造方法は、基板上に、前記基板とは異なる材質からなり、前記基板よりも低い表面エネルギーを持つ下地層と、前記下地層の上面に、前記下地層とは異なる材質からなり、前記下地層よりも高い表面エネルギーを持つ、電極パターン形状の第一層と、前記第一層の上面に、導電性ナノインクにより形成された第二層とを備えた電子デバイスの製造方法である。そして、この方法においても、前記第一層をガスカーテン方式レーザCVD法により形成することを特徴としている。
In addition, the method for manufacturing an electronic device according to another aspect of the present invention includes a base layer made of a material different from the substrate, having a lower surface energy than the substrate, and an upper surface of the base layer. An electrode pattern-shaped first layer made of a material different from the base layer and having a surface energy higher than that of the base layer, and a second layer formed of conductive nano ink on the top surface of the first layer. It is a manufacturing method of the provided electronic device. Also in this method, the first layer is formed by a gas curtain laser CVD method.
図2に、本発明に係る電子デバイスの上記の態様の電極パターン構造の概念図を示す。図2においては、基板1と第一層2との間に、下地層4が形成されている。下地層4は、基板1とは異なる材質で、基板1よりも低い表面エネルギーを持つ。そして、下地層4の上面の第一層2は、下地層4とは異なる材質で、下地層4よりも高い表面エネルギーを持ち、電極パターン形状に形成される。また、第二層3は、導電性ナノインクにより形成される。
このような下地層4の形成は、基板1の表面エネルギーが、第一層2の表面エネルギーと同等程度又はより大きい場合に有効である。基板1よりも表面エネルギーが低い下地層4上に、表面エネルギーがより高い第一層2を形成することにより、導電性ナノインクが第一層2上にのみ付着しやすくさせることができ、微細な電極パターンを形成することができる。
したがって、下地層4は、基板1の表面エネルギーが第一層2よりも十分に低い場合には、形成する必要はなく、図1に示すような層構造で電極パターンを形成すればよい。
なお、図2に示す電極パターン構造の形成過程は、図3において、基板1が下地層4を備えた基板1に代わる以外は、図3に示す過程と同様である。 In FIG. 2, the conceptual diagram of the electrode pattern structure of the said aspect of the electronic device which concerns on this invention is shown. In FIG. 2, abase layer 4 is formed between the substrate 1 and the first layer 2. The underlayer 4 is made of a material different from that of the substrate 1 and has a lower surface energy than that of the substrate 1. The first layer 2 on the upper surface of the underlayer 4 is made of a material different from that of the underlayer 4, has a surface energy higher than that of the underlayer 4, and is formed in an electrode pattern shape. The second layer 3 is formed of a conductive nano ink.
Such formation of theunderlayer 4 is effective when the surface energy of the substrate 1 is approximately equal to or greater than the surface energy of the first layer 2. By forming the first layer 2 having a higher surface energy on the base layer 4 having a surface energy lower than that of the substrate 1, the conductive nano ink can be easily attached only on the first layer 2. An electrode pattern can be formed.
Therefore, it is not necessary to form theunderlayer 4 when the surface energy of the substrate 1 is sufficiently lower than that of the first layer 2, and the electrode pattern may be formed with a layer structure as shown in FIG.
The formation process of the electrode pattern structure shown in FIG. 2 is the same as the process shown in FIG. 3 except that thesubstrate 1 is replaced with the substrate 1 having the base layer 4 in FIG.
このような下地層4の形成は、基板1の表面エネルギーが、第一層2の表面エネルギーと同等程度又はより大きい場合に有効である。基板1よりも表面エネルギーが低い下地層4上に、表面エネルギーがより高い第一層2を形成することにより、導電性ナノインクが第一層2上にのみ付着しやすくさせることができ、微細な電極パターンを形成することができる。
したがって、下地層4は、基板1の表面エネルギーが第一層2よりも十分に低い場合には、形成する必要はなく、図1に示すような層構造で電極パターンを形成すればよい。
なお、図2に示す電極パターン構造の形成過程は、図3において、基板1が下地層4を備えた基板1に代わる以外は、図3に示す過程と同様である。 In FIG. 2, the conceptual diagram of the electrode pattern structure of the said aspect of the electronic device which concerns on this invention is shown. In FIG. 2, a

上記のような本発明に係る電子デバイスの製造方法においては、いずれも、第一層2は、ガスカーテン方式レーザCVD法により形成される。
図6に、ガスカーテン方式レーザCVD法に用いられる装置の一例の概念図を示す。図6に示すガスカーテン方式レーザCVD装置100においては、基板1又は下地層4上に、レーザ光導入窓101を備えたガスウィンドウ102がわずかに隙間を空けて覆うように設置されている。ガスウィンドウ102のレーザ光導入窓101下方には、ガス導入用空間103が形成され、このガス導入用空間103に向けて、ソースガス供給通路104及びパージガス供給通路105が設けられている。また、ガスウィンドウ102のガス導入用空間103の周囲には、吸引排気通路106が設けられている。
なお、ガスウィンドウ102の具体的な構成としては、特開2010-215947号公報に記載されているようなガスウィンドウを好適に用いることができる。 In any of the electronic device manufacturing methods according to the present invention as described above, thefirst layer 2 is formed by a gas curtain laser CVD method.
FIG. 6 shows a conceptual diagram of an example of an apparatus used in the gas curtain type laser CVD method. In the gas curtain typelaser CVD apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 6, a gas window 102 having a laser beam introduction window 101 is installed on the substrate 1 or the underlayer 4 so as to cover it with a slight gap. A gas introduction space 103 is formed below the laser beam introduction window 101 of the gas window 102, and a source gas supply passage 104 and a purge gas supply passage 105 are provided toward the gas introduction space 103. A suction exhaust passage 106 is provided around the gas introduction space 103 of the gas window 102.
As a specific configuration of thegas window 102, a gas window as described in JP 2010-215947 A can be preferably used.
図6に、ガスカーテン方式レーザCVD法に用いられる装置の一例の概念図を示す。図6に示すガスカーテン方式レーザCVD装置100においては、基板1又は下地層4上に、レーザ光導入窓101を備えたガスウィンドウ102がわずかに隙間を空けて覆うように設置されている。ガスウィンドウ102のレーザ光導入窓101下方には、ガス導入用空間103が形成され、このガス導入用空間103に向けて、ソースガス供給通路104及びパージガス供給通路105が設けられている。また、ガスウィンドウ102のガス導入用空間103の周囲には、吸引排気通路106が設けられている。
なお、ガスウィンドウ102の具体的な構成としては、特開2010-215947号公報に記載されているようなガスウィンドウを好適に用いることができる。 In any of the electronic device manufacturing methods according to the present invention as described above, the

As a specific configuration of the
この装置100では、第一層2の形成箇所となる基板1又は下地層4の上面を覆ったガスウィンドウ102のガス導入用空間103に、ソースガス供給通路104及びパージガス供給通路105からそれぞれ、ソースガス及びパージガスを供給すると同時に、吸引排気通路106からガス排気を行いつつ、レーザ光導入窓101から所定のレーザ光Lを照射して、照射スポットにてCVDを行う。そして、このガスウィンドウ102と、基板1又は下地層4のレーザ光照射スポットとを相対的に移動させながら、所望箇所に第一層2を形成していく。
このように、ガスカーテン方式レーザCVD法においては、レーザ光照射スポットに、いわゆるガスのカーテン107でソースガスを局所的に封じ込め、原料ガスのリークと周囲の雰囲気からの空気等の混入を防ぐことができるため、真空チャンバ等の真空設備を要することなく、レーザCVDを行うことができる。 In thisapparatus 100, a source gas supply passage 104 and a purge gas supply passage 105 are respectively supplied from a source gas supply passage 104 and a purge gas supply passage 105 to a gas introduction space 103 of a gas window 102 covering the upper surface of the substrate 1 or the base layer 4 where the first layer 2 is formed. At the same time as supplying the gas and the purge gas, gas is exhausted from the suction / exhaust passage 106, and a predetermined laser beam L is irradiated from the laser beam introduction window 101 to perform CVD at the irradiation spot. Then, the first layer 2 is formed at a desired location while relatively moving the gas window 102 and the laser beam irradiation spot of the substrate 1 or the base layer 4.
As described above, in the gas curtain laser CVD method, the source gas is locally contained in the laser beam irradiation spot by the so-calledgas curtain 107 to prevent the leakage of the source gas and the mixing of air from the surrounding atmosphere. Therefore, laser CVD can be performed without requiring vacuum equipment such as a vacuum chamber.
このように、ガスカーテン方式レーザCVD法においては、レーザ光照射スポットに、いわゆるガスのカーテン107でソースガスを局所的に封じ込め、原料ガスのリークと周囲の雰囲気からの空気等の混入を防ぐことができるため、真空チャンバ等の真空設備を要することなく、レーザCVDを行うことができる。 In this
As described above, in the gas curtain laser CVD method, the source gas is locally contained in the laser beam irradiation spot by the so-called
したがって、前記ガスカーテン方式レーザCVD法によれば、基板1又は下地層4の表面に、レーザ光幅に対応した微細なパターンの第一層2を形成することができ、その上面に導電性ナノインクを用いて第二層3を形成することにより、第一層2とほぼ同等の幅で微細な電極パターンを形成することが可能となる。しかも、大量の材料やエネルギーを要するフォトリソグラフィや真空チャンバ等の設備を用いることなく、高精細な電極パターン形成を簡便に行うことが可能となる。
ただし、真空設備を使用しないことにより、真空チャンバを用いるレーザCVD法よりも形成膜中に酸素や窒素等が多く含まれ、酸化膜や窒化膜が金属膜と混在して形成される場合もある。 Therefore, according to the gas curtain type laser CVD method, thefirst layer 2 having a fine pattern corresponding to the laser beam width can be formed on the surface of the substrate 1 or the underlayer 4, and the conductive nano ink is formed on the upper surface thereof. By forming the second layer 3 using, it becomes possible to form a fine electrode pattern with a width substantially equal to that of the first layer 2. In addition, high-definition electrode patterns can be easily formed without using equipment such as photolithography and a vacuum chamber that require a large amount of materials and energy.
However, by not using vacuum equipment, the formed film contains more oxygen, nitrogen, etc. than the laser CVD method using a vacuum chamber, and an oxide film or a nitride film may be formed in combination with a metal film. .

As described above, the base layer 4 is formed when the surface energy of the substrate 1 is equal to or larger than that of the first layer 2 and is made of a material having a surface energy lower than that of the first layer 2. For example, when the substrate 1 is glass, a polymer such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polystyrene (PS), polyvinylphenol (PVP), and various fluorine-based polymers is used in addition to the PC, PET, PP, PMMA, and PTFE. be able to.

次に、ガスカーテン方式レーザCVD装置(オムロンレーザーフロント株式会社製)を用いて、下地層4の上面に、ソースガスとしてヘキサカルボニルタングステン(W(CO)6)、パージガスとしてArを供給しながらレーザ光(波長349nm、幅5μm)を照射し、光反応及び熱反応によりWとCOに分解し、レーザ光の幅でタングステン膜を堆積させて、第一層2(表面エネルギー:30mN/m)を形成した。
そして、第一層2の上面に、導電性ナノインクとして銀ナノペースト(ハリマ化成株式会社;NPS-JL)をスピンコート法(4000rpm)で成膜し、ホットプレート上で100℃、30分間焼成し、第二層3である銀電極(幅5.5μm)を形成した。
このように、第二層3を第一層2とほぼ同等の幅で形成することができ、微細配線の電極パターンの形成が可能であることが認められた。 EXAMPLES Hereinafter, although this invention is demonstrated further more concretely based on an Example, this invention is not restrict | limited by the following Example.
The electrode pattern structure of the electronic device as shown in FIG. 2 was produced by the following procedure.
First, PTFE having a surface energy lower than that of theglass substrate 1 is formed on the cleaned glass substrate 1 at a thickness of 300 nm by a spin coating method (4000 rpm) and thermally cured at 150 ° C. to form the underlayer 4 (surface energy: 8.7 mN / m).
Next, using a gas curtain type laser CVD apparatus (made by OMRON Laser Front Co., Ltd.), laser is supplied to the upper surface of theunderlayer 4 while supplying hexacarbonyl tungsten (W (CO) 6 ) as a source gas and Ar as a purge gas. Irradiate light (wavelength 349 nm, width 5 μm), decompose into W and CO by photoreaction and thermal reaction, deposit a tungsten film with the width of laser light, and form the first layer 2 (surface energy: 30 mN / m) Formed.
Then, a silver nano paste (Harima Kasei Co., Ltd .; NPS-JL) as a conductive nano ink is formed on the upper surface of thefirst layer 2 by a spin coating method (4000 rpm), and baked on a hot plate at 100 ° C. for 30 minutes. A silver electrode (width 5.5 μm) as the second layer 3 was formed.
Thus, it was recognized that thesecond layer 3 can be formed with a width substantially equal to that of the first layer 2 and that an electrode pattern of fine wiring can be formed.
